Reincarnated User Manual - Reincarnated User Manual chapter 34
34 – bold
I don’t like the act of sweating.
The clothes are damp and the skin is glistening with sweat, which is unpleasant.
However, along with the sticky and stuffy feeling, the feeling of washing off the sweat is cool and refreshing, so it is good in its own way.
After finishing his morning training, Shiron thoroughly washed off his sweat and changed into a soft bathrobe.
“It’s refreshing.”
Suddenly-
Siron opened the bedroom window with a slightly flushed face.
A pleasant heat rose from my body, and the cold air that insisted it was still winter tickled my fur. Just when I was feeling a little tired…
“young master. “The arrogant bald guy wants to meet you, master. What should I do?”
A slightly sharp voice came from behind. It was Ophelia. She would normally speak softly in a warm voice, but now she gave off an unfamiliar atmosphere.
Siron opened his eyes and looked back.
“…Ophelia. Didn’t I tell you last time? Don’t call me bald? “Tell me again that your uncle is calling you.”
“I think Hugo wants to see you, Master.”
“…It’s a little better, but don’t say that in front of your uncle. “Because I can’t handle it.”
“All right. young master.”
Ophelia smiled brightly, and Siron furrowed his eyebrows and groaned.
‘At least Yuma and Encia know how to be cowardly…’
After yesterday’s declaration as a hero, it feels like Ophelia’s attitude towards Hugo has become harsher. I warned you again, but
Ophelia probably did not like the attitude of Hugo, who told Siron to come and go even though he was not a warrior, a matriarch, or anything else. Shiron thought about this and sighed.
‘But what’s going on with Hugo?’
Siron took off his gown and opened the closet. The goal is to dress appropriately but not too burdensome.
Since ancient times, appearance is important when meeting superiors.
Since I put in this much effort to meet you, I don’t mean to ask you to recognize my sincerity, but rather to treat you with respect.
It may have been for Ophelia, but for Siron, Hugo was worth it.
“Would you like me to touch your head too? “How about some perfume?”
Ophelia, who was helping me get dressed, asked. She lightly guessed what mindset Siron was in when meeting Hugo.
Siron looked at his outfit in the full-length mirror and shook his head as if it was okay.
“Okay… do you know where your uncle is now?”
“This is the central reception room on the first floor.”
“You’re so busy.”
*
Following Ophelia’s instructions, I went to the first floor living room and found Hugo crammed into the sofa.
However, what was surprising was that Yuma was by his side.
The spacious space is filled with the fragrant scent of black tea. Yuma easily placed the refreshments and tea on the table.
But Siron did not sit down right away.
“Go sit down.”
After permission was given, Siron sat down on the sofa across from Hugo as if he had been waiting. Hugo smiled slightly as he saw that action.
“Are you feeling okay?”
“are you okay. “It’s no big deal.”
Siron said as he picked up the refreshments placed in front of him.
My hands, which were moderately calloused, looked unsightly as the wounds that had just begun to heal due to the morning training had burst. However, Siron deliberately exposed his hands.
From noble mtl dot com
“hahahaha. That’s right, after all, a man should treat a wound like that without any worries.”
Hugo laughed heartily, as if he liked Siron’s boldness.
‘The way he moves around looks exactly like his father when he was young.’
However, Hugo knew that Siron was showing signs of injury. Positive direction. Hugo even liked that part of Poetry.
“……”
He raised the teacup to his mouth and looked at the theory.
It looks like he is eating refreshments without hesitation in front of Hugo. If you look at just the fragmentary behavior, there is no child who appears quite innocent.
but,
There is no way that Hugo would regard Siron as an ordinary child.
The succession ceremony was just yesterday.
Siron’s unexpected behavior left a strong impression on everyone present. Hugo was no exception.
Hugo put down his teacup with a happy smile.
“The reason I asked to see you was to make a proposal.”
“What is your proposal?”
Siron faced Hugo while drinking black tea.
“I want to take you and your sister into my home.”
“…Are you telling me to leave the Dawn Castle?”
“Are you reluctant?”
“No… I don’t hate it, but… it was too sudden.”
Shiron looked up at Yuma standing next to him, but she was just smiling.
“It’s not unreasonable to be embarrassed. “It’s the act of saying goodbye to the places and people you’ve become attached to while living.”
“…Maybe so.”
Siron lowered his face at an angle that Hugo could not see.
A smile suddenly appeared on my lips. I was confused because the pumpkin rolled up on a vine.
‘You’re lucky.’
The sudden proposal can only be good news for Siron. The best equipment you can get from Dawn Castle right now is the Holy Sword. The capital of the empire, where Hugo’s mansion was located, had more to gain than here.
‘There was no progress in training. ‘It was a waste of time to just swing an iron club all day.’
Siron slowly raised his head as if he had finished worrying.
“So you’re going to go to the system?”
“I guess so.”
“Let’s do something. After all, shouldn’t heroes play in big water?”
Siron nodded with a humorous expression. Hugo chuckled at that natural behavior.
“Aren’t you sad about being separated from your employees?”
“…Then, can I take two employees with me?”
“Hoo. “I see there is a child you like.”
“I just think that would be appropriate.”
Siron recalled two figures in his head.
“Think about it step by step. “The capital and here are quite far away.”
It worked out well as I was thirsty for this and that. Siron savored the tea with a smiling expression. For some reason, the top of my head felt tingly as things were going well.
“by the way. Since I’m a user, there’s something I want to check.”
“?”
“You spoke to Yuma and the employees in advance before the succession ceremony. Did you say that even if you fail, no one should step forward?”
“Puhup!!”
Moment,
Siron squirted out the black tea he had in his mouth.
However, the black tea never reached Hugo. Siron blocked the gunk shooting forward with his teacup.
“Cough! “Cough!”
“young master. Are you okay?”
Yuma tapped Shiron on the back, and Shiron glanced sideways at Yuma.
‘Yuma, did you really say that?’
‘no.’
Such conversations were exchanged through eye contact.
Hugo rested his chin on one hand and made an amused expression.
“You seem very embarrassed. “Because I know something I shouldn’t know.”
“…Not really.”
Siron responded by patting his chest.
‘When exactly?’
Hugo stroked his chin happily, and Shiron wiped his mouth with the napkin Yuma gave him.
match-!
After Yuma clapped her hands once, the table that had been cluttered went back to normal as if time had rewinded. It was magic.
“Then again, it would be all right if we continued the story.”
“…Speak.”
“Yeah…what should I talk about first?”
Hugo clenched his fists and leaned forward. The couch screams as his weight shifts.
“Did you know that if I gave you a word in advance… by any chance, you would sink under the ice?”
“…I knew.”
cool answer.
Thanks to that, a smile spread across Hugo’s lips.
“prophecy.”
“……”
I don’t even want to think about it Hugo was just convinced by Chiron’s reaction.
“As expected, you have awakened the power of prophecy. Since when? Originally, after the coming-of-age ceremony, you must complete a separate ceremony to obtain the power of prophecy. Yuma. Is there anything wrong with what I said?”
“doesn’t exist. The current situation of the young master is unusual.”
“……”
“That’s right…”
Yuma replied with a smile, while Hugo erased the smile from his face. A shadow was cast over his face.
The power of prophecy, originally a power that a child of Shiron’s age should not have. Being able to know the future is a power that does more harm than good depending on who has it.
I don’t know what the world would think, but at least that’s what Hugo thought.
“Since when?”
Hugo’s voice as he asks the question is strangely high.
“What was the trigger?”
“……”
‘No, you suddenly got excited, man.’
Siron felt that the situation was going strangely.
What caught Hugo’s eye was clearly something similar to interest. Not happy at all. The current maids alone are enough to draw excessive attention.
‘How can I get over this…’
Siron quickly turned his head.
There is no way he would know that Shiron is a possessed person. Unlike Glenn, Hugo, who is not the head of the family, cannot even see parts of the future.
In any case, Siron is confident that Hugo will not harm him. I knew the character of Hugo, and I also had an insurance agent named Yuma by my side.
However, here you must choose carefully.
There might be a way to pass it off by showing the Holy Sword, but that would not resolve Hugo’s doubts. It is obvious that new questions will arise again. The longer the conversation, the more likely it is that there will be gaps in logic.
Finally, in that brief moment, a bright idea occurred to me.
Since he could not delay any longer, Siron opened his mouth.
“It was from the day I was beaten by my younger brother and passed out…”
Siron decided to sell Lucia. No, actually it wasn’t sold.
Because Siron only told the truth.
